Best Friend and Family :)

You all know that right.. Friends are inseparable part of human life! We all need friends to share our happiness and dark times. A friend around us motivates to be cheerful and easy going.

I have a bunch of friends. But very few among them I rely on. There are people that come into your life and slowly they become the part of your family. Often, when I’m not able to share anything with my family, I go to my best friend🙂 She makes everything easy with her I find the answer to my every problem.

I remember the first time I met her at a park near my home. Her eyes were sunken and gobbled with heavy drops of tears. I never thought my first meeting with her whom I admire will be like this. I saw her sobbing, sobbing and she just went on sobbing! I sat next to her, patted her & consoled her. But she was not ready to stop. Her hands and fingers were shivering. When I actually wonder the Ouch experience, the first meet with her, I am always taken aback! From that point, I understood the only thing in life all she needed from a friend was companionship and support.

I have met a lot of temporary people in life. Some friendships are short-lived and some last forever. I believe for a friendship to last there must be a mutual understanding, trust, loyalty and 0 jealousy.

The most crazy thing about my best friend is that she never fails to abuse me. Honestly, now I am afraid to let her down in any circumstance! Now I know that whatever happens I have to pick her call and listen to her rants and everything. There is no option to skip her call! Not that she is insane but I do stuffs which makes her abuse so badly that no other option stays my side rather than surrendering myself to her. I am the person in our friendship that often takes mini breaks from everything. This shooks her head & resulting the release of unparliamentary languange. HAHAAAA! We are best friends because we know where exactly our mind goes. The best thing about her is that she catches me up when I fall down.

Ship picks, she pats, she abuses, she hugs, she holds and we walk. What more do you need in life? When your friend refuses to leave you anyday! I feel blessed that I have her back with God’s grace. From her, I believed families are not only blood relations but my best friend is no less than my family

The golden age of Indian comics

By Anshiki Jadia

A magazine for children that tells stories through pictures which is often combined with text or other visual information.

History of fun

India’s comic industry began in the mid-1960s when the leading newspaper The Times of India launched Indrajal Comics. Mid 1960s saw syndicated strips like The Phantom, Mandrake being translated to Indian languages.

In the late 1960s, evolution of Indian comics came in the form of Amar Chitra Katha which contained 100% Indian content. In

1970, Indians most popular comic character Chacha Chaudhary was brought to life through Hindi magazine Lot pot. The popularity of Chacha Chaudhary, Pran Kumar Sharma’s stories went on to be translated in over 10 different languages.

1980s saw the entrance of several unforgettable and original characters, magazines and publishing houses like Tinkle magazine was founded.

Chacha Chaudhary’s entry into the world of Diamond comics. The arrival of Raj comics.

Around 1992, A Raj Comics issue titled Nagaraj aur Bughaku and super commando Dhruva and sold more than 9 lakh copies within 3 months of its launch, becoming the bestselling Indian Comic ever.

Manoj Comics, another one of India’s leading comic book houses, also published more than 365 comics within a year in the ‘90s, thereby implying that there was a time in the era readers actually had one new comic book to read every single day.  

There was a major decline in the sales of comic books by the late ‘90s and most Indian comic book companies were forced out of the game. The reason was rise in technology. After 2000, only Amar chitra Katha, diamond comics and raj comics were left.

After few years of struggling to revive Indian comic culture, comic companies were able to revive the culture through the birth of virgin comics, bullseye press, graphic India. Also in 2004, Web toons (a publishing portal) was launched which is a home to thousands of digital comics of different genre.

Famous Indian Comic Characters

Chacha Chaudhary is one of most favorite comic character that was created by pran Kumar Sharma. Chacha Chaudhary is a middle class Indian, frail but an extremely intelligent elder. The usual villains of Chacha Chaudhary are corrupt government officials, thieves, roadside goons & bullies, tricksters, cons and local thugs. He not only fights them and helps the common man but also teaches them moral lessons and good behavior.

Shakti is Goddess Kali’s transcending incarnation. Kali is the destroyer of demons and the last word in woman-power. She has a raging desire to get justice for women in this man’s world. The distress cries from any woman, anywhere in the world, turn her ordinary self of Chanda into a ferocious killer known as Shakti. Shakti is Maha Kali – Great Kali.

The Bahadur series focused a lot on dacoits. Bahadur himself was the son of a dacoit Bhairav Singh, who died in combat with Police. Bahadur, then a teenager, was adopted by Vishal, the police officer. Upon growing up, Bahadur set up the Citizen’s Security Force. Though Bahadur dealt with many kinds of villains, he displayed a much softer corner towards dacoits trying to rehabilitate them.

Shambu is a cowardly and lazy shikari (hunter) whom the rest of the world perceives as courageous. He always tries to run away from dangerous animals, but due to some stroke of luck always ends up as a hero. He lives with his wife Shanti. In The   Legend of Shikari Shambu (Tinkle Magazine No.573), it was revealed that Shambu, before being called “Shikari” Shambu, fell on a tiger and knocked him out. It was after this incident that he got the name “Shikari” Shambu.

Reasons Behind Failure Of Indian Comics

  • The publishers don’t know the difference between inspiration and copy.
  • Indians prefer watching over reading. (mostly free)
  • No resource for new creator.
  • Pressure of family and society.

Conclusion

For every 90’s kid, comic books were like a family member but today’s generation prefers online platforms for reading rather than seating and reading books. Many of them do not understand the thrill one feels while reading books.

But now, many Indian comic books have digitalized themselves and also have websites or apps for their fan so that They can access to the content. Now it’s our job to let get them past us devices and introduce it to young generation.

THE EFFECT OF PANDEMIC ON OUR LIVES.

Whatever has striked our ears in this pandemic was mostly some form of pessimistic news. News that someone passed away, someone’s lost his job but in all this environment of pessimism what was optimistic was the health-related consciousness of people. It’s now a matter of past for many who would take one’s health lightly but not anymore.

Everyone’s routine followed a shift, a shift from refined foods to healthy cooked meals, a shift from drinking refrigerated water to boiled one. The craze of pizza and burger was done away with and that of salad and fruits before everybody’s plate was adopted. Irregular meal timings was replaced by a regular one.Proper duration of sleep for healthy lifestyle was adopted.

It’s not just that people were focused on physical health but due importance was given to mental health. People in their spare time did internships, read fiction, non-fiction, self-help books, while several others started blogging and vlogging played sports with their close ones. Meditation was a part of everyone’s schedule without which our day was incomplete.

It’s not just food but man that was drifting away from bossom one’s due to hectic work hours now found time to sit together and discuss about each others lives. Everybody enjoyed being together and getting together was interesting part of our schedule.

The Work from Home culture made servicemen and women sit in front of computer and it was similar for children who spent their maximum time attending classes online but people made time to do exercise, made time for gardening, made time to talk to neighbors.

Cleanliness and hygiene is another positive message that came from this pandemic. We see people taking interest in cleaning their house when maids weren’t available during lockdown and it wasn’t just a work of individual but whole family contributed in keeping their surrounding clean.The real message that HEALTH IS WEALTH ,CLEANLINESS IS NEXT TO GODLINESS was adopted.

People started gardening, people started adopting animals, air became pure and lots of more positivity sprung that connected each one. The strings that were getting loose between people was strengthened during the pandemic. People used technology to get close to their distant relatives, people who never found time for their relatives were added in what’sapp groups. Video calls acted as a simile and connected people together.
Well-wishes were poured to the one’s who were ill and condolences for the one’s that saw close one’s passing away.

I don’t know when will the world recover from this ghastly virus but we as human beings have adapted ourselves to it and whenever we come out of it we would experience ourselves to be more social, more cultured and more healthy.

The threat of China is real and how can India get it’s PoK back .

The threat of China is real and how can India get it’s PoK back .

In current scenario NO but maybe in future. India today is facing Covid pandemic along with the world so you really can’t have at any point of time two major issues to handle.India’s foreign policy was doing wonders till the second wave hit the country. Before the Second wave India exported Vaccines to Nepal, Bangladesh, Brazil and many other countries due to which India was becoming a mass vaccine supplier country in South Asia and just when it started dominating the Asian Continent, the secondary wave hit it and till today India couldn’t recover from it.

The Second wave Of Covid created a huge demand for vaccines and this demand was made by cutting the supplies of vaccines to neighboring countries. India to safeguard itself lost it’s position to China who offered vaccines to Bangladesh, Nepal, Sri Lanka and Pakistan and these countries could do nothing but to accept the Chinese favour. Thus China made these countries debt -ridden ,one of it’s way to make way into it’s country.

Sri Lanka, was unable to pay the debt to China on time lost it’s Hambantota port to China The general belief seems to be that Sri Lanka was unable to pay off the loans obtained from China to construct Hambantota port in the first place, and therefore had no choice but hand over the port to Chinese control to pay off the debt.

Then China focused it’s attention towards Myanmar, a country that is facing military tension and the Chinese Army is also building a base on Coco Island in the Alexandra Channel. The water body lies between the Indian Ocean and the Andaman Sea north of India’s Andaman Islands. This all just to dominate the Indian Ocean and to keep a check on Indian naval base .

China has indirectly controlled Pakistan through it’s debt-policy. It$24.7 billion — of its total external debt to China, according to the International Monetary Fund (IMF).26-May-2021 with it’s foreign reserve being just 17 bn USD.We all know Pakistan would be unable to pay it’s debt and slowly China would start operating in Pakistan.

But even if India plans to get PoK, it must do when China focuses it’s attention towards Taiwan.The Chinese military would be busy tackling American ones and there would be a golden opportunity for India to get what was it’s own as the world would be busy near South China Sea.

If India plans to get PoK in present it will face the brute of China and in the current scenario India’s relation with it’s neighbors are also not upto the mark. China has built a CPEC corridor that passes through PoK and if India gets it’s own PoK China would now be head to head with India.

But if this homecoming of PoK is done in future when India would have recovered from Wuhan virus it be better.

Fifteen benefits of drinking water

Benefits of drinking water

To function properly, all the cells and organs of the body need water.

Here are some reasons our body needs water:

1. It lubricates the joints

Cartilage, found in joints and the disks of the spine, contains around 80 percent water. Long-term dehydration can reduce the joints’ shock-absorbing ability, leading to joint pain.

2. It forms saliva and mucus

Saliva helps us digest our food and keeps the mouth, nose, and eyes moist. This prevents friction and damage. Drinking water also keeps the mouth clean. Consumed instead of sweetened beverages, it can also reduce tooth decay.

3. It delivers oxygen throughout the body

Blood is more than 90 percent water, and blood carries oxygen to different parts of the body.

4. It boosts skin health and beauty

With dehydration, the skin can become more vulnerable to skin disorders and premature wrinkling.

5. It cushions the brain, spinal cord, and other sensitive tissues

Dehydration can affect brain structure and function. It is also involved in the production of hormones and neurotransmitters. Prolonged dehydration can lead to problems with thinking and reasoning.

6. It regulates body temperature

Water that is stored in the middle layers of the skin comes to the skin’s surface as sweat when the body heats up. As it evaporates, it cools the body. In sport.

Some scientists have suggested thatTrusted Source when there is too little water in the body, heat storage increases and the individual is less able to tolerate heat strain.

Having a lot of water in the body may reduce physical strain if heat stress occurs during exercise. However, more research is needed into these effects.

7, The digestive system depends on it

The bowel needs water to work properly. Dehydration can lead to digestive problems, constipation, and an overly acidic stomach. This increases the risk of heartburn and stomach ulcers.

8. It flushes body waste

Water is needed in the processes of sweating and removal of urine and feces.

9. It helps maintain blood pressure

A lack of water can cause blood to become thicker, increasing blood pressure.

10. The airways need it

When dehydrated, airways are restricted by the body in an effort to minimize water loss. This can make asthma and allergies worse.

11. It makes minerals and nutrients accessible

These dissolve in water, which makes it possible for them to reach different parts of the body.

12. It prevents kidney damage

The kidneys regulate fluid in the body. Insufficient water can lead to kidney stonesand other problems.

13. It boosts performance during exercise

Dehydration during exercise

Dehydration during exercise may hinder performance.

Some scientists have proposed that consuming more water might enhance performance during strenuous activity.

More research is needed to confirm this, but one review found that dehydration reduces performance in activities lasting longer than 30 minutes.

14. Weight loss

Water may also help with weight loss, if it is consumed instead of sweetened juices and sodas. “Preloading” with water before meals can help prevent overeating by creating a sense of fullness.

15. It reduces the chance of a hangover

When partying, unsweetened soda water with ice and lemon alternated with alcoholic drinks can help prevent overconsumption of alcohol.

Kidney damage

Water helps dissolve minerals and nutrients, making them more accessible to the body. It also helps remove waste products.

The kidneys
The kidneys play a key role in balancing fluid levels.

These two functions make water vital to the kidneys.

Every day, the kidneys filter around 120-150 quarts of fluid.

Of these, approximately 1-2 quarts are removed from the body in the form of urine, and the rest is recovered by the bloodstream.

Water is essential for the kidneys to function.

If the kidneys do not function properly, waste products and excess fluid can build up inside the body.

Untreated, chronic kidney disease can lead to kidney failure. The organs stop working, and either dialysis or kidney transplantation is required.

Urinary tract infections (UTIs) are the second most common type of infection in the body. They account for around 8.1 million visits to health care providers in the U.S. every year.

If infections spread to the upper urinary tract, including the kidneys, permanent damage can result. Sudden, or acute, kidney infections can be life-threatening, particularly if septicemia occurs.

Drinking plenty of water is a simple way to reduce the risk of developing a UTI and to help treat an existing UTI.

Kidney stones interfere with how the kidneys work. When present, can complicate UTIs. These complicated UTIs tend to require longer periods of antibiotics to treat them, typically lasting 7 to 14 days.

The leading cause of kidney stones is a lack of water. People who report them often do not drink the recommended daily amount of water. Kidney stones may also increase the risk of chronic kidney disease.

Fast facts on drinking water

  • Adult humans are 60 percent water, and our blood is 90 percent water.
  • There is no universally agreed quantity of water that must be consumed daily.

The leading cause of kidney stones is a lack of water. People who report them often do not drink the recommended daily amount of water. Kidney stones may also increase the risk of chronic kidney disease.

In November 2014, the American College of Physicians issued new guidelinesTrusted Source for people who have previously developed kidney stones. The guidelines state that increasing fluid intake to enable 2 liters of urination a day could decrease the risk of stone recurrence by at least half with no side effects.

Dehydration happens if we use and lose more water than the body takes in. It can lead to an imbalance in the body’s electrolytes. Electrolytes, such as potassium, phosphate, and sodium, help carry electrical signals between cells. The kidneys keep the levels of electrolytes in the body stable when they function properly.

When the kidneys are unable to maintain a balance in the levels of electrolytes, these electrical signals become mixed up. This can lead to seizures, involving involuntary muscle movements and loss of consciousness.

In severe cases, dehydration can lead to kidney failure, which can be life-threatening. Possible complications of chronic kidney failure include anemia, damage to the central nervous systemheart failure, and a compromised immune system.

Sources

Some of the water required by the body is obtained through foods with a high water content, such as soups, tomatoes, oranges, but most come through drinking water and other beverages.

During everyday functioning, water is lost by the body, and this needs to be replaced. We notice that we lose water through activities such as sweating and urination, but water is lost even when breathing.

Drinking water, whether from the tap or a bottle, is the best source of fluid for the body.

Milk and juices are also good sources of fluid, but beverages containing alcohol and caffeine, such as soft drinks, coffee, and beer, are not ideal because they often contain empty calories. Drinking water instead of sodaTrusted Source can help with weight loss.

It was previously thought that caffeinated beverages had diuretic properties, meaning that they cause the body to release water. However, studies showTrusted Source that fluid loss because of caffeinated drinks is minimal.

how much water
How much water we need to consume is influenced by the climate.

The amount of water needed each day varies from person to person, depending on how active they are, how much they sweat, and so on.

There is no fixed amount of water that must be consumed daily, but there is general agreement on what a healthy fluid intake is.

According to the U.S. National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine, the average recommended daily intake of water from both food and drink is:

This would be around 15.5 cups for men and just over 11 cups for women. However, around 80 percent of this should come from drinks, including water, and the rest will be from food.

This means that:

  • Men should drink around 100 ounces, or 12.5 cups of fluid
  • Women should drink around 73 ounces, or just over 9 cups

Fresh fruits and vegetables and all non-alcoholic fluids count towards this recommendation.

Times when it is most important to drink plenty of water include:

  • when you have a fever
  • when the weather is hot
  • if you have diarrhea and vomiting
  • when you sweat a lot, for example, due to physical activity

Facts

Here are some facts about water:

  • Babies and children have a higher percentage of water than adults. When babies are born, they are about 71 percent water, but this falls to 65 percent by the age of 1 yea.
  • Fatty tissue has less water than lean tissue.
  • Men have more water than women, as a percentage.

Do we drink enough water?

A study carried out by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) in 2013 analyzed data from the National Cancer Institute’s 2007 Food Attitudes and Behaviors SurveyTrusted Source.

Out of a sample of 3,397 adults, the researchers found:

  • 1.7 percent of adults reported no daily consumption of drinking water
  • 2.36 percent of adults reported drinking 1-3 cups of drinking water a day
  • 3.35 percent of adults reported drinking 4-7 cups of drinking water a day
  • 4.22 percent of adults reported drinking 8 cups or more a day

People were more likely to drink less than 4 cups of drinking water daily if they consumed 1 cup or less of fruits or vegetables a day.

The study only measured the intake of drinking water. Fluid can be gained from other beverages, but water is best because it is calorie-free, caffeine-free, and alcohol-free.

Seven percent of respondents reported drinking no water at all daily, and those who drank a low volume of water also consumed less fruit and vegetables. This suggests that a certain number of people are risking their health by not getting enough fluid.

Even if the respondents reporting low levels of water intake were obtaining enough fluid, it is likely that they would be obtaining it from sources that could potentially compromise their health in other ways.

“The biologic requirement for water may be met with plain water or via foods and other beverages,” write the study authors. “Results from previous epidemiologic studies indicate that water intake may be inversely related to volume of calorically sweetened beverages and other fluid intake.”

The world is changing, and engineers are the ones behind so much of this development. The majority of today’s services and products had some element of engineering involved in their conception at least, paving the way to long, fulfilling and healthy lives for the people influenced by them.

Engineers must be critical yet creative; curious yet capable; as well as ready to handle the constantly changing world.

CAN DOGS DREAM?

By Anshiki Jadia

Photo by Adrianna Calvo on Pexels.com

Have you ever wondered what’s going on in your four-legged friend’s head while they are sleeping?
Dogs are similar to humans from multiple points of view. They need exercise, like to cuddle up on the couch and furthermore gets stunned when a new person comes to their home. But when it comes to the sleep, do dog’s brain process in the similar way human do? Basically its might be difficult for us to tell what they are dreaming about but everything we do know about animal’s dream’s, comes from what we know about our own dreams.


Can dogs actually dream?
According to the studies, yes they do. One study at MIT trained rats to frolic a circular track for a food reward. Researchers monitored their brain during the task and again when they were sleeping. When the rats entered REM sleep, the phase where most dreaming occurs, researchers observed that half of their REM episode showed the same unique brain activity as when they were running on the track, awake. Their memories were even replayed at about an equivalent speed. In fact, their brain activity, asleep or awake was so similar that the researchers said they could reconstruct where the rat was on the track and whether it was running or walking. It’s generally thought that sleep allows us to consolidate and encode memories to find out things. So the rats were learning about that circular track, and a later study also in MIT found that the visual areas of rat’s brains are active in dreaming as well as their memory areas, suggesting that animals dreams in pictures.
It also showed that most land mammals experience REM sleep. In dogs REM sleep is like rapid everything movement. They twitch their little noises, they move their mouths, and they often look like they’re running or digging. What’s more, since a canine’s mind is more unpredictable and shows an identical electrical succession, it’s sensible to accept that canines do dream.

What do dogs dream about?

Anything your canine does during the day is being prepared while they rest and remembered in dreamtime. Accordingly, the jerking bristles, the crying and consequently the running paws that we regularly notice. Dreaming is your canine’s effort to comprehend the information being prepared inside the cerebrum.
Chances are that your dog is additionally dreaming about you. While we can’t know definitely, in case canines’ fantasy is packed with people, probability is that that on the off chance that you invest quality energy collaborating along with your canine, they will long for your play meeting, strolls and snuggle time together. Even though dog’s can’t tell us about their dream as they can’t speak, scientists are able to gather information about dog’s dream and sleep pattern through their various observations.


• As a canine starts dreaming, his breathing becomes further and more ordinary.
• While dreaming, the dog’s breathing may become shallow and unpredictable, and muscles may jerk. A few group may portray this as “pursuing bunnies in their rest.”

Thus, both the humans and dogs experience the two phases of the sleep cycle. Scientific researchers exhibits practically identical brain wave pattern in people and dogs which approves this supposition. The conclusion is that dream are essential for the ordinary sleep cycle, and dogs do undoubtedly have them.

Benefits of Eating Fish

Fish is among the healthiest foods on the planet.

It’s loaded with important nutrients, such as protein and vitamin D.

Fish is also a great source of omega-3 fatty acids, which are incredibly important for your body and brain.

1. High in important nutrients

Fish is packed with many nutrients that most people are lacking.

This includes high-quality protein, iodine, and various vitamins and minerals.

Fatty species are sometimes considered the healthiest. That’s because fatty fish, including salmon, trout, sardines, tuna, and mackerel, are higher in fat-based nutrients.

This includes vitamin D, a fat-soluble nutrient that many people are lacking.

Fatty fish also boast omega-3 fatty acids, which are crucial for optimal body and brain function and strongly linked to a reduced risk of many diseases

To meet your omega-3 requirements, eating fatty fish at least once or twice a week is recommended. If you are a vegan, opt for omega-3 supplements made from microalgae

Key to Happiness

What is happiness? It is something demanded by each and every being on this planet. People search for happiness in books, lectures, speaker sessions, etc, but where actually happiness lies? This articles discusses some key points of happiness and how to achieve them:

“Most folks are about as happy as they make up their minds to be.” – Abraham Lincoln

Happiness is the end of every action and is the ultimate goal of human being. As defined by Aristotle :

“Happiness is the meaning and the purpose of life , the whole aim and end of human existence.”

ORIGIN OF CONTEMPORARY DANCE

“If I could tell you what it meant, then there would be no point in dancing it” – Isadora Duncan.

IN 1800’s,Contemporary dance was the world of new dancers who sought to discover the area of revolutionary unorthodox movements gathered from all the styles of the world, instead of following rigorous classical ballet and lyrical forms of dance. a Contemporary dance, thus do not use fixed moves but instead try to develop completely new forms and dynamics like fast oppositional moving, changing alignments, raw expressions of emotions, systemic respiration, performed dancing movements in non-standing positions (e.g., lying on the ground) and usually seeking the absolute limits of our human form and physics.

Martha Graham was a dancer who introduced and popularised contemporary dance to the world public (1894 – 1991). Her contemporary dance and choreography has won the renown of her seven decades of experience in comparison with life’s work by great art enthusiasts such as Picasso, Stravinski and Frank Lloyd Wright.

Mercice Cunningham enhanced his own improvement, choreography and avant-garde dance approaches, created by his partner Martha Graham.He has been one of the largest creative forces in American dance during his long career, educating scores of world-famous dancers, and thousands of professionals who have maintained his style until now.

Lester Horton was a great visionary of contemporary dance and was schooled in his dance ways by many well known modern dancers who incorporated the native American dance and modern jazz genres.

Written by Lacey Baier  in Health & Wellness

Did you know that green tea is considered a superfood? A lot of hype surrounds this antioxidant-rich ingredient, and rightly so. This post will examine the benefits of green tea and why you should drink it every day.

Many people start their day with a steaming cup of coffee. But did you know that a cup of green tea comes with a ton of benefits? 

Making the switch to green tea, or at least changing up the routine to include green tea in your daily regimen of liquids, is a smart idea. There’s a whole lotta good in that cup of tea, including its fat-burning properties and ability to improve brain function.

We’ll talk more about that in just a bit – first, I’m going to answer a few questions about this superfood. Then, we’ll look at the super amazing benefits of green tea!

WHAT IS GREEN TEA?

To best understand green tea, we have to look at tea in general. Most people drink black tea or variations of it. Others like to sip on oolong tea, and some people prefer the white variety of tea. What are the differences, and what makes green tea so healthy?

Tea comes from the leaves of the Camellia Sinensis bush. The plant comes in two varieties. One grows in China and is used for green and white teas. The second type of bush is found in India and is used for both oolong and black tea.

Of the four types of tea, green tea has the most flavonoids, which are plant-based antioxidant chemicals. Green tea is the least oxidized when processed, and that is why it is touted as the most beneficial.

HOW MUCH GREEN TEA SHOULD YOU DRINK A DAY?

Studies have not been conclusive on how much green tea to drink a day to reap the maximum benefit. It really depends on the person and their own personal health. Different amounts of green tea every day will benefit you in various ways. 

For example, in controlled studies, those who drank one to three cups each day had a lower risk of stroke and heart disease than subjects who drank less than one cup. And stomach cancer was less likely to develop in women who consumed over 5 cups daily.

But, we have to look at it this way – how much you consume depends on how much you can tolerate. Not everyone wants to drink 5 cups in 24 hours. Adding green tea to your diet is beneficial, but as long as you are drinking a cup or more a day, that’s great!

HOW MUCH CAFFEINE IS IN GREEN TEA?

The amount of caffeine in a cup of green tea will depend on how it was grown and processed and how you brew it. But according to the Mayo Clinic, an 8 oz cup of green tea has about 28 mg of caffeine. This is about half of what you’d find in a cup of black tea.

CAN I DRINK GREEN TEA ON AN EMPTY STOMACH?

Despite the benefits of green tea, it’s best to not drink it on an empty stomach. Doing so can cause you to experience nausea. It’s the tannins in the tea that cause the problems. Tannins can increase stomach acids, leading you to feel sick and even have a stomach ache. It’s best to drink green tea in between meals. Don’t drink green tea with your meal, as it could interfere with iron intake.

ARE THERE SIDE EFFECTS TO DRINKING GREEN TEA?

People who drink a lot of green tea may experience side effects. If this happens, it’s a good idea to cut back. Remember, increase how much you drink in a day gradually. Don’t go all out the first day. Moderation is always ideal.

  • Like with any caffeine, too much can make you jittery
  • Excessive caffeine can affect sleep
  • Dehydration can occur if you drink in excess because tea is a diuretic
  • Too much green tea can cause headaches
  • Some people may experience stomach upset
  • Iron deficient people should drink green tea one hour after meals or in between meals because it may affect iron absorption

HOW TO DRINK GREEN TEA

Did you know that green tea is the second most consumed beverage after water? Who knew? Enjoy green tea warm or cold, but when you brew it, don’t pour boiling water over the leaves immediately after it has boiled. Doing so will affect the potent catechins that do all the work. Let the boiling water rest about 10 minutes and then pour. Steep 1 to 5 minutes, depending on your taste.

WHAT ABOUT MATCHA TEA?

Matcha tea comes from the Camellia Sinesis bush, too. But when farmers grow it, they cover the plants a few weeks before harvest to prevent sunlight from affecting them. The chlorophyll production is boosted, which means there are more catechins (antioxidants) in the tea. The color of the leaves is darker as well.

BENEFITS OF GREEN TEA

1. GREEN TEA HAS FAT BURNING PROPERTIES

Speeding up your metabolism is a sure-fire way to feel better in general. When your bodily systems are working at top-notch capacity, it’s a bonus to overall health. And the fact that green tea increases fat burning means that your blood is flowing better, your heart is pumping at a rate it should, and your digestive system is humming right along. 

2. GREEN TEA MAY FIGHT CERTAIN CANCERS

This is big. After all, we all know someone who has been affected by cancer and may have even faced it ourselves. So, to know that green tea may fight cancer is a pretty big incentive to add it to your day. The types of cancer that may be prevented are pretty numerous, too, including mouth, kidney, pancreas, stomach, and mammary glands, among others.

3. GREEN TEA MAY HELP WITH WEIGHT LOSS

A lot of people who have issues with their weight find that it is often an accumulation of pounds around the middle. Green tea may help you lose weight and, in turn, get rid of fat. In a study of overweight subjects, the findings were that weight and waist circumference decreased in those who drank green tea. 

4. GREEN TEA CAN FIGHT CARDIOVASCULAR DISEASE

Cardiovascular diseases are high up there when it comes to the cause of death. Green tea can affect cholesterol levels that play a factor in conditions like stroke and heart attack. Drink green tea to lower the LDL (bad) cholesterol in the blood.

5. GREEN TEA MAY PREVENT TYPE 2 DIABETES

Type 2 diabetes is on the increase. It could be due to today’s diets and the fact that we often exercise less than we should. Insulin sensitivity is reduced thanks to green tea consumption, and blood sugar levels, a culprit of diabetes, are lowered, too.

6. GREEN TEA BENEFITS ORAL HEALTH

Your oral health is important, too. In fact, some illnesses and diseases can result from a less than taken-care-of set of teeth and gums. The catechins in green tea fight against oral bacteria

Sexual Harassment

Sexual harassment include a refers to any sort of sexual behaviour that is unsolicited, overawed, abhorrent, disrespectful and humiliating. It took over decades for people to recognize sexual harassment as a real serious issue. However, it is still overlooked in the rural areas.

It is not just a single form. Any way of unwanted touch, grab or attempt to make physical contract without one’s consent, all are considered as inappropriate behaviour. Even staring and leering, someone asking for sexual favours and display of offensive and rude material by the perpetrator for others to see it also counts in. Another form may include cracking of sexual jokes and comments and making of sexual signs or gestures towards oneself. It is unacceptable for an individual to question oneself about their sexual life or humiliate oneself by absurd sexual remarks. Further, the sexual harassment also counts in indecently exposing of oneself or making salacious phone calls. Any of such form of sexual harassment is against the law.

Such inappropriate behaviour turns out to be much fatal. Sexual harassment leaves a deep impact on oneself. At times, the victims are so much stressed out that they even suffer from depression or anxiety. Apart from these, the victims often suffer by several significant psychological effects such as sleeping disorder, headaches, sexual dysfunction, plunked self esteem and many more. Furthermore, it can also cause them to withdraw from social situations. As a result, the victim starts loosing confidence and pride.

In this world, none deserves to be ill treated or be victim to any form of inappropriate behaviour and this implies to both men and women. Each and every individual has the right to live a life free from bullying, any sort of discrimination or harassment. Therefore, sexual harassment is illegal. As mentioned in Section 354 (A) of the Indian Penal Code-“A man committing any physical contact, advances involving unwelcome and explicit sexual overtures; or demanding or requesting sexual favours; or showing pornography against the will of a woman; or making sexually coloured remarks, shall be guilty of the offence of sexual harassment. It entails a punishment of rigorous imprisonment for a term which may extend to three years.”

It is essential to notice the signs or gestures if oneself feels that someone is harassing them sexually. One of such significant sign is if oneself feels uncomfortable and experience any unwelcomed physical contact. One must keep themselves updated with the policies and procedures against sexual harassment. If anyone unfortunately comes out to be a victim, then that person should try to get external information and acquire advice from people who can help them in filing a lawsuit. Similarily, one must make sure to save any evidence they get which would help them with their complaint. Likewise, one must never deal with it alone, rather try to share it with closed ones to lighten the burden.

To conclude, sexual harassment took a long time to be recognized as a real issue but now ii is no more un acknowledged. Thus, it is necessary to take effective measures against such practice and try to prevent the fatal damage that it causes to the victims. People need to understand that if someone says no it means no. However, if an individual’s no does not have any impact and is continued being subjected to sexual jokes then, its high time to realize that he/she is being sexually harassed. Therefore, it is essential to help out those who are being victim to such harassments and make the perpetrator liable for their repulsive act.
